Scale 1/48
Skill Level 2 plastic model kit by Revell
The unorthodox design features of the P-39 were conceived as early as 1936, when the aircraft engineers took on the task of designing an aircraft they considered to be the ultimate for air warfare. By locating the engine behind the cockpit and driving the propeller through an eight foot extension shaft and reduction gear box, the nose section was made available for the installation of heavy armament.

P-38F Glacier Girl

Plastic Model Kit by Academy
During the summer of 1942, a flight of two B-17 Bombers and six P-38 Fighters were being flown to England from the United States in support of the war in Europe. The planes flew into a massive storm system near Iceland. In an attempt to avoid the storm the flight turned back for the safety of Greenland. But, again, they ran into storms. Their only chance for survival was to crash land on the glacial wastes of Greenland. Although the first P-38 plane to attempt landing flipped over, all remaining aircraft got down without significant injuries to any of the men. After eleven days the men were rescued by a team from a US Army weather station stationed at Angmagssalik, Greenland. The warplanes were abandoned on the glacier and after the first winter never to be seen again.

On August 1, 1992 at 2:32 p.m., after four months of laborious work, a seven-member team surfaced the first and only P-38 and christened her "Glacier Girl". Upon her return to the United States, she soon found her home in Middlesboro, Kentucky. Located at the Middlesoboro-Bell County Airport, she was restored to flyable condition by a team of restoration experts.

Messerschmitt BF109E-4/7 Trop

Scale 1/48 Skill Level 3 Plastic Model Kit by Tamiya
During the first half of the Second World War, the Messerschmitt Bf109 E was the main fighter of the German Air force. The E-4 housed a 1,100 hp Daimler Benz DB 601Aa engine and was armed with two 7.9mm machine guns on the nose, as well as 20mm cannon on each wing. For some aircraft, bulletproof glass was used to reinforce the front of the canopy. Displaying superb acceleration and diving ability, the E-type planes overpowered RAF’s Hawk Hurricane and equaled the Spitfire fighters in the Battle of Britain. However, with a flight range of only 560km, the E-4 planes were limited to just fifteen minutes of combat over British skies. Thus, the bombers were not given sufficient support and sustained heavy damage.

Messerschmitt Bf109 E-3

Scale 1/48 Skill Level 3 Plastic Model Kit by Tamiya
Without a doubt, the Messerschmitt Bf109 can be claimed as the most famous and successful German aircraft from the WW2. It was the world's most advanced fighter at the time of its debut in 1936, and remained as the standard fighter for the Luftwaffe throughout the conflict. Created by the brilliant designer Willi Messerschmitt, it had the smallest possible airframe built around the most powerful engine available. It also boasted many of the then innovative features such as an all metal stressed skin construction, retractable main landing gear, automatic Handley-Page leading edge slats, etc. The E-3 version used an improved Daimler-Benz DB601Aa engine capable of 1,100 h.p. output. This engine had provision for mounting a 20mm MG FF cannon on the crankcase and firing through the propeller hub. The Messerschmitt Bf109E was one of the best fighters of the early WW2 period, on a par with the British Spitfire.

Junkers Ju87D Stuka

Scale 1/48
Skill Level 2 plastic model kit by Revell
The Stuka had fourteen variants of which the Ju87D's were the last and most popular. They were powered by the Junkers Jumo 211J-1 engine with 12-cylinders and (1,410-hp). The first version of this famous plane the Ju 87-1 saw action in 1937 with the Condor Legion in Spain. Joined in 1938 and 1939 by the later Ju 87B. The Junkers dive-bomber was more notorious than any other weapon in the German army. Within 9 months of the beginning of the war, the Ju 87 acquired an almost legendary reputation. The success of the Stuka lasted until August of 1940 when Germany launched its aerial offensive against the British Isles. Poorly armed and outmaneuvered by the defending Spitfires and Hurricanes, the Stuka paid a fearful price. By the end of August, the last of the Stuka Geschwader or dive-bomber wings was removed from action over Great Britain

Hyakushiki Shitei III Kai

Scale 1/48 Skill Level 3 Plastic Model Kit by Tamiya
Shortly before China-based B-29s initiated high-altitude daylight raids over Japan, it became obvious to the Japanese Army leaders that an urgent development of an interceptor fighter with good performances at high altitude was necessary. In June 1943, the Army Aeronautical Research Institute studied the possibility of adapting the Hyakushiki Shitei R, which was one of the few operational aircraft in the Japanese Army to have the required altitude performance, to this type of operation. To mount two 20mm machine guns on the nose, the forward fuselage fuel tank were replaced and nose canopy was modified to "stepped" nose housing. The aircraft with these modifications were called Hyakushiki Shitei III Kai Air Defence Fighter "Otsu" type. Although most of them were flown by reconnaissance aircraft pilots with little dog fighting experience, they made greater military gains against B29s proving the outstanding basic capability of the Hyakushiki Shitei.
